Some people insist women can’t use their spiritual gifts in ministry. They won’t listen to alternate views. How to help them see that they deviate from Scripture? We asked Dr. Rob Dixon and he pointed us to his recent book, Allies in Ministry: How Men Can Support Women in God’s Mission, IVP Academic, 2026. Rob has served on InterVarsity Christian Fellowship staff for almost thirty years. He also teaches at Fuller Theological Seminary and Fresno Pacific University. In his free time, Rob goes on long runs, cheers for the L.A. Dodgers, and plays as much pickleball as possible. He is also the author of Together in Ministry: Women and Men in Flourishing Partnerships. He is the coauthor with his wife, Amy, of the picture book Penny Preaches.
